Feb. 14, 2014

Results

EDINBURG &ndash; Nikita Lis may have dropped his first match of the season on Friday, but the rest of the Cardinal lineup made up for it as the Lamar men&rsquo;s tennis team earned a third consecutive victory, beating Texas-Pan American 4-3 at Orville Cox Tennis Center.

Lis, a freshman out of Kaliningrad, Russia, fell 6-3, 6-1 to Juan Cruz Soria at No. 1 singles. Lis had entered the day with a perfect 4-0 record.

Michael Feucht picked up a win at No. 2 singles, beating Sebastian Job 6-2, 6-3, and Jeandre Hoogenboezem doubled the point total with a 6-4, 6-5 decision over Mauricio Fosado at No. 6.

Mikko Rajamaki put the Cards within a point of clinching with a 6-3, 6-4 victory over Alejandro Sanoja at the fifth spot, but it wouldn&rsquo;t be easy as both Juuso Laitinen and Carl-Philip Lindqvist saw their matches go to a third set.

Laitinen wn the first 6-4, but fell 6-5 in a hard fought second before ultimately going down in the third 6-3 to Chetan Panditi. Lindqvist, on the other hand, bounced back from a 6-5 loss to Ricardo Hopker in the first to win the next two 6-3 and 6-2.

In doubles, the team of Feucht and Laitinen picked up a 6-2 win at the top spot, but Lis and Trey Crysel lost by the same score at the third. Hoogenboezem and Rajamaki lost 6-4 on the deciding second line.

The Cardinals will return to action on Saturday morning at Thompson Family Tennis Center as Prairie View A&amp;M will roll into town for an 11 a.m. start.
